| As unpleasant as it may sound, with training and competition often come injuries. So what can you do to prevent those injuries? Here are a few tips. Train your entire body. Sometimes muscles imbalance can lead to injuries (eg. ACL). Listen to your body. Allow your body to heal and build muscles. Push yourself, but don't push it to the breaking point. Drink plenty of fluids. You should never feel thirsty while training. Dehydration is very common among athletes, and can keep you out of competition. It is important to drink fluids at least 2 hrs before competition, during competition and after competition to restore water lost. Execute exercises correctly! Incorrect technique can result in injury. Stretch!!! Stretch!!! Stretch!!! |
